摘要：AbstractIn our continuing work onVitexgenus, the phytochemical investigation of leaves ofVitex grandifolialed to the isolation of two iridoids known in the literature as agnuside and bartsioside. The chemical structures were characterized by combined spectroscopic analysis. These compounds were isolated from this specie for the first time, this study give evidence to iridoids as chemotaxonomic marker and their constitutive presence has been reported in a number of genera in the familyLamiaceae.Iridoids have been isolated from nineteen species belonging to genusVitexfromLamiaceaeespecially aucubin and agnuside. In addition to the utilization of morphological features of plants belonging to this genus, these compounds may be useful chemotaxonomic markers to aid taxonomic identification. This work evaluates and describes the distribution of iridoids inVitexspecies to further establish this claim with structures of the iridoids found in this genus.
